Chapter 508: Bribery? Being a servant in the Han Mansion is too difficult
At night, Aunt Ru waited in the yard for a long time but Shen Wenting did not come. The carefully prepared wine and food had already gone cold. She looked toward the door in the yard. A breeze blew and she shivered. The weather had become cold without her noticing.
"Aunt, it's cold in the yard, you should go back to the house and wait!" Chan'er took a cloak and put it on her.
"Chan'er, go and see why the master hasn't come yet." Runiang ordered Chan'er.
The cicada nodded, ran out of the yard, and came back after a while, looking gray.
"how's it going?"
"Aunt, the master... the master went to Madam's yard again. I heard that the master was about to come to us, but was stopped by Madam on the way, saying that there was something important to discuss."
"What! That bitch wants to monopolize the master alone?" Aunt Ru was immediately furious and overturned all the carefully prepared dishes.
A table of food was also prepared in Yan Huan's yard. The difference between her table and the ordinary table of food on Aunt Ru's table was huge. They were all top-notch dishes that made people's appetite increase at the first sight.
"Huan'er, why have I never seen this dish of yours before?" Shen Wenting looked at her in surprise as he looked at the table full of sumptuous food.
"Husband, this is the chef my father hired at a huge price. I heard that his ancestors had worked in the palace for generations. I went back to my parents' home a few days ago and ate the dishes he made. I was so impressed that I begged my father to let me use him for a few days. My father felt sorry for me and gave him to me. You can try it and see how it tastes." Yan Huan took him to sit down and added a few special dishes for him.
"Well, it tastes really good. Is that why you called me over here?" He had promised Runiang to go over there tonight, but halfway through the journey, Yan Huan said that he had something important to tell him, so he turned back.
"That's why, but there is another important thing. I heard that my husband went to the old lady's yard today, worried about her health, and wanted to ask Doctor Han to come and see her?" Yan Huan said slowly.
"Well, but you can't just invite Dr. Han. Besides the high consultation fee, the most important thing is that he has to see the patient first. He can't treat everyone." Shen Wenting shook his head.
"Husband, I will give it a try tomorrow."
"Huan'er, do you have a solution?" Shen Wenting's eyes lit up.
"No matter how powerful he is, he is just a doctor. There is nothing that money can't solve."
What Yan Huan said was right. Who wouldn't like money? The reason why she couldn't find a miracle doctor before might be because she didn't have enough money. So why not let her try?
"Then I'll trouble you, Huan'er."
"Husband, there's no need for us to be so polite. Let's eat quickly and then we can chat slowly, otherwise the food will get cold." Yan Huan saw Shen Wenting's relaxed brows and became happy too. It was worth it for her to snatch him away from Aunt Ru halfway.
After dinner, Yan Huan prepared a lot of good things, which dazzled Shen Wenting so much that he completely forgot about going to Aunt Ru's place.
The next day, Yan Huan prepared a large sum of money and went to Han Junze's house in person to ask him to come and see the old lady.
"Young man, please tell someone that the wife of the Shangshu Mansion wants to see Dr. Han."
"Madam, do you have a visiting card?"
"No."
"I'm sorry, please go back."
"I'm here sincerely to ask for help from Dr. Han, and I hope you can help me." Yan Huan asked the maid beside him to take a silver ingot and hand it to the gatekeeper.
"Madam, what are you doing? I can't help you without a visiting card. And please take the silver back. If someone sees it, it will affect my master's reputation." The servant glanced at her and refused.
Alas, it is not easy to be a servant in the Han Mansion. Although he is just a gatekeeper, not everyone can guard this gate. Every now and then someone comes to give him money and good things, and asks him to say a few good words in front of the young master. Facing so many temptations, he has to pretend that money is dirt. It is too difficult. No, when he meets the young master, he must ask him to increase his monthly salary.
"Young man, do you think this is too little?" Yan Huan asked the servant behind her to open the box in her hand, revealing the white silver inside: "This is the consultation fee for Dr. Han. If you can cure our old lady, I will reward you handsomely."
"Madam, you have misunderstood. Please go back! Don't make things difficult for me." The servant said and closed the door.
"You! Madam, what should we do now? This Doctor Han really doesn't know what's good for him. With our master's status and this money, why does he need to ask others for favors like this?" The maid beside Yan Huan said angrily.
"Okay, let's go back first." She didn't expect that this Divine Doctor Han would be so difficult to invite, so she had to take her people back home first.
After Yan Huan left, Yao Qingnian happened to accompany Shen Jinghong here and brought some gifts to thank Han Junze for curing his illness. Now that his brain was healed, the space also disappeared. Yao Qingnian found an opportunity to try to bring Shen Jinghong to his own space, and found that he could already get him in. He checked him and found that there was nothing serious and he just needed to rest well.
"Miss Shen, Master Shen, you are here, please come in."
"Don't call us that anymore. We have severed our relationship with the Shen family and changed our surname to Chen."
"Okay, I've made note of it." The servant nodded and invited them in.
"The person just now seemed to be the wife of the Shen family. What was she doing here?" Yao Qingnian asked.
"She came to ask our young master to see the old lady of the Shen Mansion, but she didn't bring a visiting card, so I rejected her."
"Okay, I got it. Thank you, young man." Yao Qingnian and Shen Jinghong entered the Han Mansion. The housekeeper said that their young master was busy and would be here soon.
"Sister, wait for Divine Doctor Han here. I'm a little bored. I'm going to go to the Han Mansion for a walk and will come back to see you soon."
"Brother, are you going to look for Sister Junlan?" Yao Qingnian said with an "I understand" look.
"It's good that you know it. Why should you say it out loud?" Shen Jinghong tapped his forehead.
"Go ahead! Try to capture Sister Junlan as soon as possible and marry us a sister-in-law. We're keeping an eye on you."
"Of course you have to." Shen Jinghong said and left to find Han Junlan.
After a while, Han Junze came over and said, "Master, how come you have time to come and see me today? Didn't you say that Master Jinghong would come as well? Why can't I see him? Where is he?"
"He has something to do and will be back soon. Nuo, this is the thank-you gift he prepared for you. Thank you for healing his injury."
"Something? He has a good plan. He is not here to thank me, but to look for my sister under the guise of something else, right?"
